Procedures to overlap the blades
Blades overlap
These rotary cutters have blades that overlap to assure the cut over the whole job area
to compensate a possible wearing on the blades, leading to cut failures. If the transmission
box (distributor or gearbox) or the supports receive a maintenance that alters the factory-
adjusted synchronism, resync the blades to assure that they will not collide when turning.
• Totally lift the rotary cutter to the third point of the tractor until it is possible to inspect
their supports.
• Turn off the tractor, brake and use chocks on the tires. Firmly immobilize the rotary
cutter on this height.
• For the RC² 2600 CL and RC² 3100 CL models, remove one of the chains from the
gearbox. If you have a RC² 2600 LSL model, uncouple the cardan shaft end.
• Manually turn the blade supports until they reach an angle of
90 degrees.
• Assemble the chain/cardan shaft end on the rotary cutter and observe the supports
position, always keeping an angle of
90 degrees
.
• Perform a complete turn on the blades using your hand to assure that they will not
collide during operation.
